I'm watching tv and nibbling on the most original shortbread cookies I've ever tasted that the very talented bossymarmalade made. Martha would be proud. I never thought I'd consider cookies adult food.But, dude, these are grown up cookies. Yummy, yummy, yummy.

Shortbread! Mmmm. Sweetie, can you send me the recipe? I'm craving cookies... and your spice bar recipe too!! I ate those that you packed for me on my plane trip home in May, and missed you with every bite :(

So sorry my email to you has been delayed... if it weren't so damn long and detailed, I'd have sent it off by now. I got really sick a few days ago and think I'll have to go to the doctor before the week is out... icky swollen red nodules in my throat! If my voice holds up, a phonecall might be easier actually... are you around, say tomorrow eve? I'm afraid I'll be crashing momentarily, or I'd suggest tonight.

Tomorrow eve will be fine, peaches. I got a dr's appt for the morning, and hopefully she'll cure what ails me, and I'll be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed when we talk. If by some twist of fate, an evil spell is cast on me and I can't call, I'll email to let you know.
